A proposito di questo titolo

 Growth of the Soil (Markens Grøde) is a remarkable novel by Norwegian author Knut Hamsun, for which he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1920. As beautifully articulated by English translator W.W. Worster in his footnote from December 1920, the story chronicles the life of a man in the wilderness, exploring the origins and gradual development of a homestead—a microcosm of humanity—set against the untouched landscapes of the Norwegian Highlands. This epic tale captures the enduring bond between man and nature, showcasing the strength and simplicity that define their relationship. With a calm and steady rhythm, Hamsuns narrative unfolds with vast, intimate humanity, inviting readers to witness the gentle yet profound alliance between the characters and the land they cultivate. The author observes his characters with a compassionate detachment, embodying the spirit of a benevolent creator.Copyright Culture and Heritage classics Arte Scienze sociali Storia e critica della letteratura
